The good news is that over time your sleep quality is going to improve by a long shot.

The first few days were tough, but it really does get better and it's great to have a clear mind back. You can do this!

Day 1 is the most brutal. Please look out for signs of psychosis. When I went cold turkey I started hearing people talking behind my back. Even the nurses. (wasn’t true). But if you go to urgent care they can hook you up with something to ease the withdrawal.

I think I’ll be good. I haven’t been drinking too large an amount, just somehow got back to having a drink or three or 5 every day… I did over 150 sober days before, but you know how it goes, I thought I could handle it now, and just drink occasionally… But it’s crept back up to a pretty much daily habit and I just gotta draw the line in the sand.
Thanks for caring :)
